Folacoat Easyspot, Folex’s self-adhesive polymer film, is used in commercial and packaging printing.
For many years, Folacoat Easyspot has offered the possibility of producing spot coating forms with simple means. With Folacoat Easyspot AC, the company is once again able to improve the popular product. The modified polymer has significantly improved coating transfer. With a Shore A hardness of 83°, the self adhesive polymer achieves the best coating results with a sharp-edged coating transfer.
In addition, transparency has been improved. The blue-transparent film allows cutting contours to be seen more clearly. Cutting can be done manually by hand or by a CAD cutting plotter.
As a cost-effective alternative to finished coating plates, the film is applied to a dry offset printing plate. An exposed and absolutely grease-free printing plate (wash off protective rubber coating with water if necessary) forms a good carrier and creates optimum adhesion conditions.
Instead of the printing plate, a polyester carrier can also serve as a base. Due to the transparency of the polymer film, the coating plate produced can be quickly and easily cut and stripped at the points where no coating transfer is to take place.
Folacoat Easyspot AC is recommended for the transfer of dispersion coatings. In numerous tests, good results could also be realised with smaller runs in conjunction with UV coatings.
